Abstract: In previous studies on ethnic minorities, there has been insufficient exploration of the correlation between ethnic identity and national identity. To address this gap, this paper adopts the method of textual analysis on Alai's novel "Sui Feng Piao San"and proposes a three-stage model of "ethnic group - nation" dual composite identity. The study finds that the ethnic identity of the characters in Alai's works exhibits the characteristic of dynamic reconstruction, while being influenced by both the traditional culture of their own ethnic group and national ideology. Furthermore, the characters in the novel have unique paths of identity construction. The research findings on contemporary ethnic minority literature further confirm this point. Finally, the results of this study can provide a brand-new perspective for subsequent research on Alai.
